Daft time yet?
ok season is over..
the lack of speed in the LB corp is blinding - SLB is my #1 area of concern. DL needs something. the players they have should get the job done but they are not cutting it. Youth maybe the answer Missing Lance Moore showed we have no back up slot WR. The OL is not as great as the media says. Niners proved it. Bushrod, pro bowl or not belongs at RT. Secondary can not catch a cold. So time to start shopping. Which way do we go? |

[QUOTE=hagan714;369534] Bushrod, pro bowl or not belongs at RT.
QUOTE] No he doesn't! Strief is better. I said it before the game that Bushrod was going to get exposed. He's slow coming out of his stance & gets abused by good pass rushers. It was very obvious today. We need a legit LT. Bushrod got in the Pro Bowl only because of Drew Brees' play this year. |

Our need, for a long time, has been OLB. Martez Wilson played pretty well, and he may help. But, our lack of speed at that position has caused us to put Safeties in real bad positions to try and compensate. I really hope new blood and new coaches fix that in the off-season.

Martez and Casillas both are fast for the OLB spot, they just don't get enough playing time...
